《Mana System - Hello, World! [Complete]》Afterword
Advertisement
Hello everyone, and thanks for taking the time to read Mana System. When I first started this story, it was on a whim. I never really expected to be writing this for two years or for it to reach over 600k words.
Back before the November Writathon, I realized I had no good idea where to take the story after this arc. Sure I could have done a redemption arc and that might of been ok. But I decided it was time to bring the story to a close. So instead of stringing it along, I decided to complete the story with the end of this arc. Hopefully, you all enjoyed this arc as much as I did writing it.
It's probably for the best. This story had a lot of issues but it taught me plenty about how to write. Will my next story be a masterpiece of literature that will shake the world? No, probably not but you might find it interesting. I hope some of you will join in on the new journey with Kingdom of Rust, link in the post chapter notes. The story will be a bit lighter in tone than Mana System and while it will be fantasy, it isn’t LitRPG. If you are interested, check out the synopsis below. And once again, thank you for reading Mana System and all the feedback and comments and for the over 750k views.

Ever since Bakus was little, he only wanted to be one thing when he grew up, a Chosen, a protector of humanity. So he trained diligently with that purpose in mind, until the day he came of age.
When he finally managed to fulfill his lifelong wish, he finds out not everything is as he thought and he isn’t nearly as prepared as he should have been. He must now try and survive while he unravels the truth and figures out who he can trust.
***
The first chapters are already out with a Monday through Friday release schedule until I hit chapter 20 or until I meat the goal of the writathon. Then I will go back to my two chapters a week schedule as that works well with my available time to write.

Permanight (Hiatus)
The world of Mecc has fallen into permanent night. Monsters roam the countryside, the sun refuses to rise, and towns and cities alike are falling into disarray. Their only hope is the ancient prophecy, which says a hero of light will emerge to save humanity in their darkest hour... 20 years from now. Too little, too late for those living now. In the midst of the the apocalypse, college student Oscar McAllister finds himself out of a job and out of luck. After accidentally ending up slaying a daemon on his way to get the groceries however, Oscar is haplessly drawn into the world of adventuring and questing, and with the old world falling apart - Oscar becomes one of the many tasked with trying to hold everything together. As he fights however, he is forced to face not just the evil that lurks in the shadows: but the indifference that lurks in people’s hearts. The world is playing a waiting game with human lives, and Oscar is caught right in the middle of it. Note: This is a dark LitRPG story, with dungeons, levelling, and quests in a contemporary setting. Permanight is currently on hiatus while I prepare a rewrite based on the current feedback I've recieved. I'm sorry for the bad news, but I want to bring the world to life in a way that feels real, and at the moment - I'm not entirely convinced that I'm doing that.

T.W for the entire story violence and gay shitVirgilBroken was probably the best way to describe him, during the day at least. At night he was the one doing the breaking.LoganHe was the biggest nerd at school and although he didn't fully understand emotions he knew his best/only friend Virgil was hiding something and he was going to figure out what.PattonEveryone's best friend but he was hiding something big. RomanHe may or may not admire Virgil but he can't stand how secretive the kid is, he is determined to find out what is up with him. For better or for worse.Together they could be an amazing team, the only problem is that sometimes it is too hard to let someone in even if they are trying to save you.
